Hello! From a million miles away...physically and mentally. The author apologises for every single hour lost - troubled times, call for action. I've been thinking, it has been busy...also very cold. Which begs the question: "Do I have ice flowing through these veins?" Not that I know of but 🤬it. Call me what you want, my intent is pure. I blame the abundance of raw emotion and a bleeding heart. (Throw in some talent and inspiration!) Dang, I just described myself as a recipe 4 disaster - whoops! Keep in contact. Check the usual places. I am there. The hunting ground of social media - heavy sigh!

This is post is written out of frustration with the news and social media. I just decided to write a myself a happy ending. If you like fiction, look at the other entries. There's fiction, there is fact. These are memories. This is the life of a rebel influencer.
Building bridges.
In this life, I learnt at an early age that some things are easier said than done. The reason I've kept quiet for so long.
Truth is, I am sick and tired of seeing corruption. Angry at world. I've felt a weight on my shoulders that did not belong to me. I have been told time after time: "Let it go! We need you."
My response: "cut me into a thousand pieces, maybe then there will be enough to go around?" It is unfortunate. I am enough. (If I use that as a mantra, what could go wrong?) 😜

The City
Chapter one
In the heart of the Inner City, where individual liberty was revered and innovation thrived, lived a young woman named Hope. She was the daughter of an adopted man married to the Lady Ruan, esteemed advocates of reason and self-interest. Growing up in an environment shaped by the principles of several writers and modernisers, Hope had imbibed the virtues of self-reliance, rationality, and the pursuit of personal happiness.
Despite her upbringing, Hope found herself struggling with a debilitating fear of failure. It hindered her ability to express her convictions and lead with confidence. Observing her daughter's predicament, Lady Ruan encouraged Hope to confront her fears and embrace her potential to make a difference in the world.
One fateful day, the Inner City faced an unprecedented threat. The local government, once a symbol of freedom, had gradually strayed from its core principles, implementing policies that stifled individual rights and suppressed innovation. People in the Inner City were growing disillusioned and oppressed, their creativity and productivity hampered.
Hope could no longer stand idle, witnessing her beloved community's decline. Summoning her courage, she embarked on a journey of self-discovery and transformation. She delved deep into the works of renowned authors, seeking inspiration and guidance in the face of adversity.
Motivated by her newfound resolve, Hope assembled a small group of like-minded individuals who shared her passion for freedom and reason. They became the rebels, dedicated to restoring the Inner City to its former glory. Hope's natural charisma and unwavering belief in individual rights propelled her to assume the role of their leader.
The rebels, fuelled by their commitment to liberty and personal happiness, devised ingenious plans to challenge the oppressive regime. They used their intellect and resourcefulness to expose the government's corruption and inspire the residents of the Inner City to question the status quo. Hope, emerging from her own shadows, led with conviction, inspiring others to embrace their inner strength and challenge the oppressive system.
Together, they organized peaceful protests, empowering the people to voice their concerns and demand change. Hope's eloquence and unwavering commitment to rationality resonated with the residents, sparking a spirit of dissent that began to spread like wildfire.
As the movement gained momentum, the government grew increasingly alarmed. They tried to suppress the rebellion, resorting to force and coercion. But Hope's resolute determination, bolstered by her unwavering belief in the power of individual rights, kept the rebels steadfast. They refused to be silenced, even in the face of adversity.
The residents of the Inner City, inspired by Hope's fearlessness and unwavering pursuit of happiness, rallied behind the rebellion. The government's hold on power began to crumble as the people awakened to the idea that their lives, their dreams, and their happiness mattered.
Eventually the forces of reason, freedom, and individualism prevailed. The oppressive regime, weakened by the united front of the rebels and the awakened residents, succumbed to the demands for liberty and justice.
Hope's journey from a fearful daughter to a revered rebel leader became an emblematic tale of triumph over adversity. Her unwavering commitment to the principles of her faith, and belief in a higher power, allowed her to overcome her fears, mobilize the people, and restore the Inner City to its rightful place as a beacon of individual liberty and innovation.
Hope's story taught the residents of the Inner City that each individual possesses the power to shape their destiny and challenge the status quo. It reminded them that it is through the fearless pursuit of personal happiness and the unwavering defence of individual rights that they can create a society that thrives on reason, self-interest, and the celebration of human potential.
Chapter two: Let it rain
Hope's journey in the Inner City took an extraordinary turn when she discovered a remarkable connection with the rain—a connection that allowed her to harness its power and purity. With the aid of the rain, Hope became a catalyst for transformation, washing away the layers of oppression and revealing a city of glass beneath. As the rebellion gained momentum, Hope called upon the rain to cleanse the city, both symbolically and in reality. The rain served as a powerful metaphor, washing away the falsehoods, corruption, and societal constraints that had clouded the Inner City. It revealed a city of glass, a transparent and pristine environment where truth and individualism could flourish.
With each rainfall, the residents of the Inner City witnessed the transformative effect of Hope's connection with the rain. The cleansing droplets revitalized their spirits, symbolizing the liberation from the chains of conformity and the rebirth of their own individual identities.
The city of glass, revealed through the collaborative effort of Hope and the rain, served as a physical manifestation of the rebellion's ideals. It represented a society where transparency, honesty, and the celebration of individuality were embraced. The glass structures reflected the aspirations and dreams of the residents, amplifying the importance of personal happiness and self-interest.
Hope, as the leader of the rebellion, guided the residents of the Inner City in embracing this newfound clarity. She encouraged them to break free from the old paradigms and see the world with fresh eyes, recognizing the beauty and potential that lay within each individual. With the city of glass as their backdrop, the people were inspired to embrace truth and pursue their own passions, unencumbered by the shadows of the past.
Her connection with the rain and the revelation of the city of glass further solidified her leadership, as she guided the residents toward a society built on transparency, reason, and self-interest. The transformation of the Inner City into a place of truth and individualism became a testament to the enduring power of Hope's vision and the collective effort of the rebellion.
Through the rain's cleansing touch, the Inner City thrived as a beacon of authenticity and personal fulfilment. The residents cherished the transparent structures and the values they symbolized, celebrating the uniqueness and potential of each individual. The city of glass served as a constant reminder of the triumph of truth and the resilience of the human spirit.
Hope's connection with the rain and the revelation of the city of glass became a defining chapter in her leadership journey. It showcased the transformative power of embracing truth, washing away the old and embracing the new. The Inner City, forever changed by the rain's purifying touch, stood as a testament to the unwavering pursuit of personal happiness, the defence of individual rights, and the enduring triumph of clarity and truth.
